[davidberger]

Recently completed fishless cycle. 46 gallon bow front. Fluval c4, play sand bottom.



Today added:



10 white cloud minnows

10 epsi rasboras.



Still want to add:



8 sterbai Cory cat

1 angle fish

Maybe 2 Bolivian rams

What do you guys think?

Sounds fine to me.

Aqua visor says angel fish and Bolivians rams are too aggressive for the espi rasbora....

What do you guys think?

Looking for a hearty tank friendly center piece.

I looked them up, they seem fine with angels or rams. They are too big for the angel to eat. And rasboras hang at the top, so the rams wouldn't really interact with them. What did Aqadvisor say about them?

Aqadvisor isn't always right, it's just a good jumping off point.

The rasboras I obtained are smaller version than harlequin rasboras. I got espie rasboras...see attached pic.

Aqua visor said rams and angles are to aggressive for the espie.

 

[threnjen]

I think they are fine and large enough to not be eaten.

I don't find rams or angels particularly aggressive.

You'll just need to get some other opinions I guess. Aqadvisor isn't always right (but then neither am I)

Sounds good,

Thanks
